This ones a nice taste of what it was like skateboarding in South Carolina 10 years ago. They recently held a reunion-repremiere down in Charleston and it was a pretty damn good time. Plenty of "oohs" and "ahhhs" and of course plenty of laughs about clothing choices in the mid-2000s. So here it is...Dirtbags, a film by Jack Abbot and Cory Wilkinson. Featuring Ty Brown, JT Gleason, Aaron Green, Chris Jacobs, Bill Pardee, CJ Ulm, Dusty Yauilla and more.

At one point during this chilly Saturday in December I heard someone remark, "I don't know why we didn't just call it King of Sunset Park the first year." Well, the moniker stuck anyways but it might be for good reason. These people, all friends and equals, are no kings at all. The only gold they surround themselves with comes packaged as a liquid in aluminum cans and glass bottles. They sit upon their pool coping thrones and rule over the backyard. These people would out-skate any ruler and drink any monarch under the damn table, so kings be damned. SPOTR is more fun than ruling a country anyways and significantly less likely to result in assassination or a coup d'etat. If you missed out, you severely missed out, but click this photo below and see more.

Another sick one out of NC by TKP. A mix of skateboarding (duh), art, and experimental video magazine style before everyone had phones attached to their hands and GoPros up their asses. Too many good things in here to name but highlights include a Wilmington section, Greenville section, plenty of NC State, and so on.

This right here is the opus. This is the video that put NC videos on the map. This is the video that made NC skateboarding relevant for my friends and I (and probably a bunch of other people). This one is fucking epic. A film by James Tupper (of Post22) and Travis Knapp-Prasek (of SkateNC) featuring parts from Scotty Moore, Jeremy Menard, Ty Rodhe, Brett Abramsky, Jed Shooter, Chad Shooter, Tyler Tufty, Dan Murphy, and the first full length part (that I know of) from Justin Brock. You're gonna wanna watch this one AND the bonus montage.

If you don't know about the Lost Bowl, that's too bad. This place is epic. This year they hosted a Halloween party. Ripping went down. Bands shredded ear drums. Beer was drank. A good time was had. Day time photos by Matt Miller and night photos by Tyler Brady.

First ones here means clean up duty.

Alex Irvine stoking!

And we got to skate it to ourselves for a little while. Ben Bradford frontside air.

These right here are a few epic NC pieces of history the new generation may have missed. If you're looking for some heavy shit that went down or wanna brush up on your ABD's at your local NC skate spot or if you wanna see some spots you ain't never seen before check this shit out. Edit Skateboards full length video "Viewfinder" from the mid-2000's and the Edit Promo from 2001 or so. Featuring : Chad Shooter, Daniel Roberts, Ricky Covach, Drew Hanner, and Jed Shooter and many many more. Big thanks to Ricky Covach for ripping these DVD's.
